Reading books at Perpustakaan Nasional RI

Sunday is a family day or holiday. Sometimes, we do not have any plans to go to some places or do family activities. Because of the reasons, I looked for an useful activity that can make me happy or just for fill my leisure time. I went to Perpustakaan Nasional RI (National Library) in Central Jakarta.

This library is located at Jalan Medan Merdeka Barat, near Monas area. We can reach the library by TransJakarta busway Coridor I and stop at Bank of Indonesia shelter. After that, we walk until we find the place on foot. The library has many books and litterateurs. Some rooms are divided for some categories such as Bahasa, Social, Politic, and the others. Beside that, there is a special room. the room is Korean Room. There are a lot of Korean books and litterateurs in this Korean room. Almost of the books use Korean Language and the others use English. There is also a book room for children. There are many children books. The design of room takes children room with children theme wallpapers.

We can borrow the books or just read at the library. Besides that, we can photocopy the page, which we need. There are many facilities at this library, such as multimedia room, photocopy stand, Mushollah, and Wi-Fi area. The library opens on Monday until Sunday from 8.00 a.m. – until 4.00 p.m.
